I learned cursive, but was never very good at it, and it never felt natural. In elementary school, teachers required that we write things in cursive, but as soon as they stopped requiring that, I went back to writing in print.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

I gave up cursive pretty quickly too. I always thought my print was easier to read.

My brother got all screwed up in his cursive writing education. When he was in 1st grade, the school taught cursive in 2nd grade. He changed schools at the end of that year, and the new school had already taught cursive in 1st grade. So, he had to teach himself, and his cursive is appalling to this day.

Does Ethiopia use Roman letters? I suppose the Italians ruled them for long enough for it to become entrenched, but wouldn't they have used Greek letters (or Arabic/Hebrew?) before that?
